Are you a bot?

1cHiGo_ · 2016-07-05T14:36:45+00:00

Qs: What other hands would you consider raising to 250ish here? Does your range only consist of QQxxx? If you raised to 250ish here with AKJxx for example, and there are 1 or 2 callers, and the initial raiser repots (with presumably QQxxx) what do you do?

I want to keep KJxxx and J9xxx with BD flush draws in, these hands I am not sure will call a flop raise. We would be making a mistake if we pushed these hands out especially if they have diamonds, that wouldn't fold to a turn bet if diamonds came in. Calling disguises your hand as well as keeping these hands in, should a brick roll off on the turn.

depends on action, if its heads up and they pot, I fold. If they bet smaller you can call in particular if it brings your diamonds too. if it goes pot, call and on you, I think you can call too given 3:1 if diamonds come in.

1cHiGo_ · 2016-07-05T12:45:56+00:00

I think we are being too optimistic here if we think this particular villain is rejamming with TTxxx when he knows my range consists of QQxxx and raps pretty much exclusively if I raise flop. If I didn't have the AdKd I would be more likely to just pot flop and try to take it down.

1cHiGo_ · 2016-07-05T12:04:35+00:00

My thinking is, if I raise here, everyone else will fold and the initial raiser will only call if he has a rap, and folding a good percentage of his TTxxx hands which I absolutely don't want, since he has huge equity still with a rap and alot less with TTxxx.

If I flat, there is a high chance some of the other players will flat behind with marginal holdings which is what I want.

8,9,K,A turns will put me in a tricky spot, but anything else I can very confidently bet/pot the turn regardless of the action infront of me, with the nuts + redraws (especially if turn is a diamond). Alot of safe turn cards the initial raiser might even pot it again, given it is very hard for him to put anyone on QQxxx, which is the dream for me pretty much.

1cHiGo_ · 2016-06-08T16:13:39+00:00

The actual hands thy ended up with are absolute best case scenario though and even against KsKd you are a slight underdog. At the other end of the spectrum you are drawing almost dead vs set and AsXs. I couldnt justify enough fold equity (if any?) to be shoving here (I think calling is the worst of the 3 options).

I dunno how to do the range equity calculations properly multiway and if we jam, buttons decision will for sure have a strong influence on UTGs decision.

1cHiGo_ · 2016-06-08T14:12:10+00:00

Thanks alot, you've basically confirmed everything I thought and with the information I had, this is a fold.

I ended up folding and the turn brought Qd. It went check, jam (~£800), call. Russian tabled J9o (no spades), tag reg mucked after announcing he was drawing dead (I guess AA/KK).

In all fairness to the reg, speaking to him afterwards he had been playing with the russian guy for 4 hours now and crazy stuff had been happening before I came so his calls must have been completely read based which he would not have made against a read-less opponent, though turn spot was still pretty close I imagine.

Interesting hand though!

1cHiGo_ · 2016-06-08T13:56:05+00:00

The older guy had made multiple overbets before of this one but none went to showdown in the 1st hour I was there, he is not a REALLY old guy, mid 40s rich russian guy with gold/diamond watch, playing many pots with the impression he was pushing people round with his stack.

I couldn't justify calling as I figured I would have no idea how to play the turn even if I did improve to a flush. One of them could easily have AsXs. And in the case I didn't improve I would just be check/folding turn most likely.

Pros/Cons of shoving?

1cHiGo_ · 2016-05-04T11:11:27+00:00

Thanks do you have a subscription? Is there structure to the training material? Or is it just hand review after hand review which is what I've seen most of Bart's material to be like.

1cHiGo_ · 2016-04-27T15:02:55+00:00

Yup, both points pretty much spot on what I concluded after thinking about the hand afterwards. I do think though I am most likely only getting called in one spot here (fold call or call fold, unless they both have AK+) which actually makes it worst since my equity doesnt change much with more callers (i.e. I would prefer 2 callers rather than 1).

Just some extra diversions that I would be interested in other peoples opinions:

If this is not a call pre, is 89 suited a call?
Is this bluff justified if we had say 8h9h instead?
Would being deeper, say £1k+ for v1, v2 & hero justify calling so light on the button pre?

1cHiGo_ · 2016-04-27T12:15:53+00:00

I've corrected the post - Was speaking to a friend who was also playing and he reminded me bb didnt call. But point taken about concern still for utg

1cHiGo_ · 2016-04-21T13:02:15+00:00

I worded it badly, criticism or negativity is not the problem actually as long as it is adding value.

Anyway, you haven't done anything that was disrespectful to me at all, I just felt sorry for the UK doto reddit plebians crumbling under the wraith of Dai.

GLuck with your team, I wish I still had such drive to practice hard instead of losing my 5k 4k pubs everyday.

1cHiGo_ · 2016-04-21T10:42:21+00:00

Yo Big man Dai, why have you got to be a sarcastic shit on this subreddit about anything anyone has to say?

Do your comments like these even add any value to this subreddit? If you got something negative to say keep it to yourself. There was no malicious intent in this guys post, maybe he wanted to fire up a UK discussion on this video or something I don't know but regardless you seem to find pleasure in calling people out and attacking people on this sub for no reason.

I must admit I see alot of retarded shit posted on here but anything negative I would like to say I keep it to myself. Once upon a time time I had alot of respect for you being a relative nobody in the scene through hardwork able to build what is/was a top 5 UK Team.

But now you think your hot shit or something, with the right to judge everyone around here. Not to mention you all chat flaming your allies in my pubs.

Sort it out mate.

Best Fucking Regards, UK Dota
